A linker-controlled strategy has been demonstrated to synthesize polymeric photocatalysts for efficient H<sub>2</sub> evolution by UV-Vis-IR with benchmark quantum yields.
Abstract The bandgap engineering of semiconductors, in particular low‐cost organic/polymeric photocatalysts could directly influence their behavior visible photon harvesting. However, an effective and rational pathway to stepwise change the photocatalyst is still very challenging. An efficient strategy demonstrated tailor from 2.7 eV 1.9 organic by carefully manipulating linker/terminal atoms chains via innovatively designed polymerization. These polymers work a stable manner for both H 2 O...
Graphitic carbon nitride (g‐C 3 N 4 ) is a metal‐free semiconductor that has been widely regarded as promising candidate for sustainable energy production or storage. In recent years, g‐C become the center of attention by virtue its impressive properties, such being inexpensive, easily fabricable, nontoxic, highly stable, and environment friendly. Herein, research developments related to are outlined, which sheds light on future prospective. Various synthetic methods their impact properties...
The ability to effectively harness and store renewable solar energy in chemical forms, e.g., methanol has been widely recognised as a promising sustainable strategy for H2 storage. Though traditional steam reforming of enables effective release from water, the harsh operating conditions result high consumption CO by-product. To minimize emission maximise production, photocatalytic liquid water developed produce by sulphur doped graphitic carbon nitride (SCN) this work. Consequently, both...
The development of energy efficient, reproducible, and high throughput approaches to gold nanoparticle (Au-NP) synthesis has gained increasing attention over the past decades due applications in biomedicine, sensors, catalysis.

We investigated the relationship between crystallinity, deep trap states and PEC performance of g-C3N4 photoelectrodes. Long-lived charge carriers were present in more poorly crystalline samples, due to deeper states, which inversely correlated with photoelectrochemical performance. The diffusion length a compact film was determined be ca. 1000 nm.
Pyridine-functionalized single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) are prepared from the addition of a pyridine diazonium salt to nanotubes. The location and distribution functional groups is determined by atomic force microscopy using electrostatic interactions with gold nanoparticles. pyridine-functionalized SWNTs able act as cross-linkers hydrogen bond poly(acrylic acid) form SWNT hydrogels. further characterized Raman, FTIR, UV/vis−NIR, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy thermogravimetric...

Pyridinium ylides generated from simple Krohnke salts undergo a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition to single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) offering and convenient method for the covalent modification of nanotubes. The indolizine functionalized SWNTs generated, emit blue light when excited at 335 nm. location distribution functional groups was determined by AFM using electrostatic interactions with gold nanoparticles. While resonance Raman spectroscopy showed that cylcloaddition pyridinium nanotube...
ABSTRACT Photocatalytic dye degradation under visible light irradiation is restricted by the poor absorption and rapid recombination of photogenerated electron‐hole pairs in traditional materials, such as graphitic carbon nitride (g‐CN), hindering their practical applications.
